- an oxide TFT has been attracting attention as an effective TFT forming material because it has excellent uniformity of TFT characteristics when an element is formed on a large-area glass plate, and has already been put into practical use in part.
- the alkali component in the glass is large, alkali ions are diffused into the semiconductor material on which the film is formed during the heat treatment, and the characteristics of the film are deteriorated. Therefore, the content of alkali components (particularly, Li component and Na component) is low or not substantially contained.
- Various chemicals such as acid and alkali are used in the photolithography etching step. Therefore, it has excellent chemical resistance.
- the glass plate is heat-treated at a temperature of several hundred degrees Celsius in steps such as film formation and annealing. When the glass plate is thermally contracted during the heat treatment, pattern deviation or the like is likely to occur. Therefore, heat shrinkage is difficult, especially the strain point is high.

- the reason why the content of each component is regulated as described above will be described below. In addition, in description of each component, the following% display points out the mass% unless there is particular notice.
- the preferred upper limit content of SiO 2 is 70%, 68%, 66% or 65%, especially 64%, and the preferred lower limit content is 57%, 58%, 59% or 60%, especially 61%.
- the most preferable content range is 61 to 64%.
- the content of Al 2 O 3 When the content of Al 2 O 3 is too low, the strain point is lowered, the thermal shrinkage value is increased, the Young's modulus is lowered, and the glass plate is easily bent. On the other hand, if the content of Al 2 O 3 is too high, the BHF (buffered hydrofluoric acid) resistance is lowered, and the glass surface is likely to become cloudy and the crack resistance is liable to be lowered. Furthermore, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 -based crystals, particularly mullite, precipitate in the glass, and the liquidus viscosity tends to decrease.
- the preferred upper limit content of Al 2 O 3 is 25%, 23%, 22% or 21%, especially 20%, and the preferred lower limit content is 16%, 17% or 17.5%, In particular, it is 18%. The most preferable content range is 18 to 20%.

- the content of B 2 O 3 is too high, the strain point, heat resistance, and acid resistance tend to decrease. In particular, when the content of B 2 O 3 is 7% or more, the tendency becomes remarkable. If the content of B 2 O 3 is too high, it decreases Young's modulus, tends large amount of deflection of the glass plate.
- the mass ratio Al 2 O 3 / B 2 O 3 is preferably 1 to 5, 1.5 to 4.5, or 2 to 4, particularly preferably 2.5 to 3. .5.
- MgO is a component that improves the meltability by lowering the high temperature viscosity without lowering the strain point. MgO has the effect of reducing the density most in RO. However, when it is introduced excessively, SiO 2 -based crystals, particularly cristobalite, are precipitated, and the liquidus viscosity tends to decrease. Further, MgO is a component that easily reacts with BHF or hydrofluoric acid to form a product. This reaction product may adhere to the element on the surface of the glass plate or adhere to the glass plate, causing the element or the glass plate to become cloudy. Therefore, the content of MgO is preferably 0 to 5%, more preferably 0.01 to 4%, still more preferably 0.03 to 3%, and most preferably 0.05 to 2.5%.

There is a possibility that an object sticks to the element on the surface of the glass plate or adheres to the glass plate, causing the element or the glass plate to become cloudy.

On the other hand, when the molar ratio CaO / MgO increases, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 —CaO based crystals tend to precipitate.

Therefore, the content of SrO is preferably 0 to 6% or 0 to 5%, particularly preferably 0 to 4.5%.

Therefore, from the viewpoint of supplying a high-quality glass plate at a low cost and in large quantities, it is necessary to improve the meltability. It is very important to reduce the defect rate due to bubbles, foreign matters and the like. Therefore, the content of BaO is preferably 0 to 7%, 0 to 6% or 0.1 to 5%, particularly preferably 0.5 to 4%.

However, if the content of MgO + SrO + BaO is too high, the density and the thermal expansion coefficient tend to increase.

- ZrO 2 is a component that enhances chemical durability. However, when the amount of ZrO 2 is increased, devitrification of ZrSiO 4 tends to occur.
- the preferred lower limit of ZrO 2 content is 1%, 0.5%, 0.3% or 0.2%, especially 0.1%, and 0.005% or more is introduced from the viewpoint of chemical durability. It is preferable to do. The most preferable content range is 0.005 to 0.1%.

When the ultraviolet transmittance is lowered, there is a possibility that a defect may occur in a photolithography process for manufacturing a TFT or a liquid crystal alignment process using ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the preferable upper limit content of iron is 0.001% in terms of Fe 2 O 3 , and the preferable lower limit content is 0.05% and 0.04% in terms of Fe 2 O 3. Or 0.03%, especially 0.02%. The most preferable content range is 0.001% to 0.02%.

In such a case, it is difficult to transmit light, and there is a possibility that a defect may occur in the foreign substance inspection. In particular, this problem is likely to occur when the substrate size is 730 mm ⁇ 920 mm or more. Further, the thickness of the glass plate is small (for example 0.5mm or less, 0.4 mm or less, or 0.3mm or less), since the light incident from the glass plate end face is reduced, to restrict the content of Cr 2 O 3 Significance increases.

Description
本発明は、ガラスに関し、具体的には、有機ＥＬ（ＯＬＥＤ）ディスプレイ、液晶ディスプレイの基板に好適なガラスに関する。更に、酸化物ＴＦＴ、低温ｐ－Ｓｉ・ＴＦＴ（ＬＴＰＳ）駆動のディスプレイの基板に好適なガラスに関する。
The present invention relates to glass, and more specifically to glass suitable for substrates of organic EL (OLED) displays and liquid crystal displays. Further, the present invention relates to a glass suitable for a substrate of an oxide TFT and a low temperature p-Si.TFT (LTPS) driven display.
従来から、液晶ディスプレイ等のフラットパネルディスプレイ、ハードディスク、フィルター、センサー等の基板として、ガラスが広く使用されている。近年では、従来の液晶ディスプレイに加えて、ＯＬＥＤディスプレイが、自発光、高い色再現性、高視野角、高速応答、高精細等の理由から、盛んに開発されると共に、一部では既に実用化されている。また、スマートフォン等のモバイル機器の液晶ディスプレイ、ＯＬＥＤディスプレイは、小面積でありながら、多くの情報を表示することが要求されるため、超高精細の画面が必要になる。更に動画表示を行うため、高速応答も必要になる。
Conventionally, glass has been widely used as a substrate for flat panel displays such as liquid crystal displays, hard disks, filters and sensors. In recent years, in addition to conventional liquid crystal displays, OLED displays have been actively developed for reasons such as self-emission, high color reproducibility, high viewing angle, high-speed response, and high definition, and some have already been put into practical use. Has been. In addition, a liquid crystal display or an OLED display of a mobile device such as a smartphone is required to display a large amount of information even though it has a small area. Furthermore, since a moving image is displayed, a high-speed response is required.
このような用途では、ＯＬＥＤディスプレイ、或いはＬＴＰＳで駆動する液晶ディスプレイが好適である。ＯＬＥＤディスプレイは、画素を構成するＯＬＥＤ素子に電流が流れることで発光する。このため、駆動ＴＦＴ素子として、低抵抗、高電子移動度の材料が使用される。この材料として、上記のＬＴＰＳ以外に、ＩＧＺＯ（インジウム、ガリウム、亜鉛酸化物）に代表される酸化物ＴＦＴが注目されている。酸化物ＴＦＴは、低抵抗、高移動度であり、且つ比較的低温で形成が可能である。従来のｐ－Ｓｉ・ＴＦＴ、特にＬＴＰＳは、非結晶Ｓｉ（ａ－Ｓｉ）の膜を多結晶化する際に用いるエキシマレーザの不安定性に起因して、大面積のガラス板に素子を形成する際にＴＦＴ特性がばらつき易く、ＴＶ用途等では、画面の表示ムラが生じ易かった。一方、酸化物ＴＦＴは、大面積のガラス板に素子を形成する場合に、ＴＦＴ特性の均質性に優れるため、有力なＴＦＴ形成材料として注目されており、一部では既に実用化されている。
For such applications, an OLED display or a liquid crystal display driven by LTPS is suitable. An OLED display emits light when a current flows through an OLED element constituting a pixel. For this reason, a material having low resistance and high electron mobility is used as the driving TFT element. As this material, in addition to the LTPS described above, an oxide TFT typified by IGZO (indium, gallium, zinc oxide) has attracted attention. An oxide TFT has low resistance and high mobility, and can be formed at a relatively low temperature. Conventional p-Si TFTs, especially LTPS, form elements on a large-area glass plate due to the instability of an excimer laser used when polycrystallizing an amorphous Si (a-Si) film. In this case, the TFT characteristics are likely to vary, and screen display unevenness is likely to occur in TV applications. On the other hand, an oxide TFT has been attracting attention as an effective TFT forming material because it has excellent uniformity of TFT characteristics when an element is formed on a large-area glass plate, and has already been put into practical use in part.
高精細のディスプレイの基板に用いられるガラスには、多くの特性が要求される。特に、以下の（１）～（５）の特性が要求される。

（２）フォトリソグラフィーエッチング工程では、種々の酸、アルカリ等の薬液が使用される。よって、耐薬品性に優れていること。
（３）成膜、アニール等の工程で、ガラス板は数百℃の温度に熱処理される。熱処理の際に、ガラス板が熱収縮すると、パターンズレ等が発生し易くなる。よって、熱収縮し難いこと、特に歪点が高いこと。

Therefore, the content of alkali components (particularly, Li component and Na component) is low or not substantially contained.
(2) Various chemicals such as acid and alkali are used in the photolithography etching step. Therefore, it has excellent chemical resistance.
(3) The glass plate is heat-treated at a temperature of several hundred degrees Celsius in steps such as film formation and annealing. When the glass plate is thermally contracted during the heat treatment, pattern deviation or the like is likely to occur. Therefore, heat shrinkage is difficult, especially the strain point is high.
(4) The coefficient of thermal expansion is close to that of a member (for example, a-Si, p-Si) formed on a glass plate. For example, the thermal expansion coefficient is 30 to 40 × 10 −7 / ° C. When the thermal expansion coefficient is 40 × 10 −7 / ° C. or less, the thermal shock resistance is also improved.

However, when this glass is molded by the overflow downdraw method or the like, there is a problem that the molding temperature tends to be high, and devitrified foreign matter is easily generated in the glass at the time of molding. In particular, in order to increase the strain point and Young's modulus of this glass, it is necessary to increase the content of Al 2 O 3 and MgO and reduce the content of B 2 O 3 . The above problem is easily realized.

If a glass in which a plurality of the crystals are precipitated near the liquidus temperature is obtained, it becomes easier to obtain a glass satisfying the required characteristics (1) to (7), particularly (7).
本発明のガラスは、ガラス組成として、質量％で、ＳｉＯ2 ５７～７０％、Ａｌ2Ｏ3 １６～２５％、Ｂ2Ｏ3 １～８％、ＭｇＯ ０～５％、ＣａＯ ２～１３％、ＳｒＯ ０～６％、ＢａＯ ０～７％、ＺｎＯ ０～５％、ＺｒＯ2 ０～５％、ＴｉＯ2 ０～５％、Ｐ2Ｏ5 ０～５％を含有し、モル比（ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯ）／Ａｌ2Ｏ3が０．８～１．３、モル比ＣａＯ／Ａｌ2Ｏ3が０．３～１．０であることが好ましい。上記のように、各成分の含有量を規制した理由を以下に説明する。なお、各成分の説明において、下記の％表示は、特に断りがない限り、質量％を指す。
The glass of the present invention has a glass composition of mass%, SiO 2 57-70%, Al 2 O 3 16-25%, B 2 O 3 1-8%, MgO 0-5%, CaO 2-13%. , SrO 0-6%, BaO 0-7%, ZnO 0-5%, ZrO 2 0-5%, TiO 2 0-5%, P 2 O 5 0-5%, molar ratio (MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO) / Al 2 O 3 is preferably 0.8 to 1.3, and the molar ratio CaO / Al 2 O 3 is preferably 0.3 to 1.0. The reason why the content of each component is regulated as described above will be described below. In addition, in description of each component, the following% display points out the mass% unless there is particular notice.
ＳｉＯ2の含有量が低過ぎると、耐薬品性、特に耐酸性が低下すると共に、歪点が低下し、また低密度化を図り難くなる。一方、ＳｉＯ2の含有量が高過ぎると、高温粘度が高くなり、溶融性が低下し易くなると共に、ＳｉＯ2系結晶、特にクリストバライトが析出して、液相線粘度が低下し易くなる。ＳｉＯ2の好ましい上限含有量は７０％、６８％、６６％または６５％であって、特に６４％であり、好ましい下限含有量は５７％、５８％、５９％または６０％であって、特に６１％である。最も好ましい含有範囲は６１～６４％である。
When the content of SiO 2 is too low, chemical resistance, particularly acid resistance is lowered, strain point is lowered, and it is difficult to reduce the density. On the other hand, when the content of SiO 2 is too high, the high-temperature viscosity becomes high and the meltability is liable to be lowered, and the SiO 2 crystal, particularly cristobalite, is precipitated and the liquidus viscosity is liable to be lowered. The preferred upper limit content of SiO 2 is 70%, 68%, 66% or 65%, especially 64%, and the preferred lower limit content is 57%, 58%, 59% or 60%, especially 61%. The most preferable content range is 61 to 64%.
Ａｌ2Ｏ3の含有量が低過ぎると、歪点が低下し、熱収縮値が大きくなると共に、ヤング率が低下して、ガラス板が撓み易くなる。一方、Ａｌ2Ｏ3の含有量が高過ぎると、耐ＢＨＦ（バッファードフッ酸）性が低下し、ガラス表面に白濁が生じ易くなると共に、耐クラック抵抗性が低下し易くなる。更にガラス中にＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3系結晶、特にムライトが析出して、液相線粘度が低下し易くなる。Ａｌ2Ｏ3の好ましい上限含有量は２５％、２３％、２２％または２１％であって、特に２０％であり、好ましい下限含有量は１６％、１７％または１７．５％であって、特に１８％である。最も好ましい含有範囲は１８～２０％である。
When the content of Al 2 O 3 is too low, the strain point is lowered, the thermal shrinkage value is increased, the Young's modulus is lowered, and the glass plate is easily bent. On the other hand, if the content of Al 2 O 3 is too high, the BHF (buffered hydrofluoric acid) resistance is lowered, and the glass surface is likely to become cloudy and the crack resistance is liable to be lowered. Furthermore, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 -based crystals, particularly mullite, precipitate in the glass, and the liquidus viscosity tends to decrease. The preferred upper limit content of Al 2 O 3 is 25%, 23%, 22% or 21%, especially 20%, and the preferred lower limit content is 16%, 17% or 17.5%, In particular, it is 18%. The most preferable content range is 18 to 20%.
Ｂ2Ｏ3は、融剤として働き、粘性を下げて溶融性を改善する成分である。Ｂ2Ｏ3の含有量は、好ましくは１～８％、２～８％、３～７．５％、３～７％または４～７％、特に好ましくは５～７％である。Ｂ2Ｏ3の含有量が低過ぎると、融剤として十分に作用せず、耐ＢＨＦ性や耐クラック性が低下し易くなる。また液相線温度が上昇し易くなる。一方、Ｂ2Ｏ3の含有量が高過ぎると、歪点、耐熱性、耐酸性が低下し易くなる。特に、Ｂ2Ｏ3の含有量が７％以上になると、その傾向が顕著になる。また、Ｂ2Ｏ3の含有量が高過ぎると、ヤング率が低下して、ガラス板の撓み量が大きくなり易い。
B 2 O 3 is a component that works as a flux and lowers viscosity to improve meltability. The content of B 2 O 3 is preferably 1 to 8%, 2 to 8%, 3 to 7.5%, 3 to 7% or 4 to 7%, particularly preferably 5 to 7%. When the content of B 2 O 3 is too low, it does not sufficiently act as a flux, and the BHF resistance and crack resistance are likely to decrease. In addition, the liquidus temperature is likely to rise. On the other hand, if the content of B 2 O 3 is too high, the strain point, heat resistance, and acid resistance tend to decrease. In particular, when the content of B 2 O 3 is 7% or more, the tendency becomes remarkable. If the content of B 2 O 3 is too high, it decreases Young's modulus, tends large amount of deflection of the glass plate.
歪点と溶融性のバランスを考慮すると、質量比Ａｌ2Ｏ3／Ｂ2Ｏ3は、好ましくは１～５、１．５～４．５または２～４、特に好ましくは２．５～３．５である。
In consideration of the balance between strain point and meltability, the mass ratio Al 2 O 3 / B 2 O 3 is preferably 1 to 5, 1.5 to 4.5, or 2 to 4, particularly preferably 2.5 to 3. .5.
ＭｇＯは、歪点を下げずに高温粘性を下げて、溶融性を改善する成分である。また、ＭｇＯは、ＲＯ中では最も密度を下げる効果が有するが、過剰に導入すると、ＳｉＯ2系結晶、特にクリストバライトが析出して、液相線粘度が低下し易くなる。更に、ＭｇＯは、ＢＨＦ又はフッ酸と反応して生成物を形成し易い成分である。この反応生成物は、ガラス板表面の素子上に固着したり、ガラス板に付着したりして、素子やガラス板を白濁させるおそれがある。よって、ＭｇＯの含有量は、好ましくは０～５％、より好ましくは０．０１～４％、更に好ましくは０．０３～３％、最も好ましくは０．０５～２．５％である。
MgO is a component that improves the meltability by lowering the high temperature viscosity without lowering the strain point. MgO has the effect of reducing the density most in RO. However, when it is introduced excessively, SiO 2 -based crystals, particularly cristobalite, are precipitated, and the liquidus viscosity tends to decrease. Further, MgO is a component that easily reacts with BHF or hydrofluoric acid to form a product. This reaction product may adhere to the element on the surface of the glass plate or adhere to the glass plate, causing the element or the glass plate to become cloudy. Therefore, the content of MgO is preferably 0 to 5%, more preferably 0.01 to 4%, still more preferably 0.03 to 3%, and most preferably 0.05 to 2.5%.
ＣａＯは、ＭｇＯと同様にして、歪点を下げずに高温粘性を下げて、溶融性を顕著に改善する成分である。ＣａＯの含有量が高過ぎると、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3－ＲＯ系結晶、特にアノーサイトが析出して、液相線粘度が低下し易くなると共に、耐ＢＨＦ性が低下して、反応生成物がガラス板表面の素子上に固着したり、ガラス板に付着したりして、素子やガラス板を白濁させるおそれがある。ＣａＯの好ましい上限含有量は１２％、１１％または１０．５％であって、特に１０％であり、好ましい下限含有量は２％、３％または３．５％であって、特に４％である。最も好ましい含有範囲は４～１０％である。
CaO, like MgO, is a component that lowers the high temperature viscosity without lowering the strain point and significantly improves the meltability. If the CaO content is too high, SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 -RO-based crystals, especially anorthite, precipitate, the liquidus viscosity tends to decrease, and the BHF resistance decreases, resulting in a reaction product. There is a possibility that an object sticks to the element on the surface of the glass plate or adheres to the glass plate, causing the element or the glass plate to become cloudy. The preferred upper limit content of CaO is 12%, 11% or 10.5%, especially 10%, and the preferred lower limit content is 2%, 3% or 3.5%, especially 4%. is there. The most preferable content range is 4 to 10%.
モル比ＣａＯ／Ａｌ2Ｏ3を所定範囲に調整すると、液相線温度付近の温度において、２種類以上の結晶が析出し易くなる。モル比ＣａＯ／Ａｌ2Ｏ3が小さくなると、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3系結晶が析出し易くなる。一方、モル比ＣａＯ／Ａｌ2Ｏ3が大きくなると、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3－ＣａＯ系結晶が析出し易くなる。モル比ＣａＯ／Ａｌ2Ｏ3の好ましい上限値は１．０、０．９、０．８５、０．８、０．７８または０．７６であって、特に０．７５であり、好ましい下限値は０．３、０．４、０．５、０．５５、０．５８、０．６０、０．６２または０．６４であって、特に０．６５である。
When the molar ratio CaO / Al 2 O 3 is adjusted to a predetermined range, two or more types of crystals are likely to precipitate at a temperature near the liquidus temperature. When the molar ratio CaO / Al 2 O 3 is reduced, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 based crystals are likely to precipitate. On the other hand, when the molar ratio CaO / Al 2 O 3 increases, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 —CaO based crystals tend to precipitate. The preferable upper limit value of the molar ratio CaO / Al 2 O 3 is 1.0, 0.9, 0.85, 0.8, 0.78 or 0.76, particularly 0.75, and the preferable lower limit value. Is 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.55, 0.58, 0.60, 0.62 or 0.64, in particular 0.65.
モル比ＣａＯ／ＭｇＯを所定範囲に調整すると、液相線温度付近の温度において、２種類以上の結晶が析出し易くなる。モル比ＣａＯ／ＭｇＯが小さくなると、ＳｉＯ2系結晶が析出し易くなる。一方、モル比ＣａＯ／ＭｇＯが大きくなると、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3－ＣａＯ系結晶が析出し易くなる。モル比ＣａＯ／ＭｇＯの好ましい上限値は２０、１７、１４、１２、１０または８であって、特に６であり、好ましい下限値は２、２．５、２．８、３．１、３．３、３．５または３．８であって、特に４である。
When the molar ratio CaO / MgO is adjusted to a predetermined range, two or more types of crystals are likely to precipitate at a temperature near the liquidus temperature. When the molar ratio CaO / MgO is small, SiO 2 -based crystals are likely to precipitate. On the other hand, when the molar ratio CaO / MgO increases, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 —CaO based crystals tend to precipitate. A preferable upper limit value of the molar ratio CaO / MgO is 20, 17, 14, 12, 10 or 8, particularly 6, and a preferable lower limit value is 2, 2.5, 2.8, 3.1, 3. 3, 3.5 or 3.8, especially 4.
ＳｒＯは、耐薬品性、耐失透性を高める成分であるが、ＲＯ全体の中で、その割合を高め過ぎると、溶融性が低下し易くなると共に、密度、熱膨張係数が上昇し易くなる。よって、ＳｒＯの含有量は、好ましくは０～６％または０～５％、特に好ましくは０～４．５％である。
SrO is a component that enhances chemical resistance and devitrification resistance. However, if the ratio is excessively increased in the entire RO, the meltability tends to decrease and the density and the thermal expansion coefficient easily increase. . Therefore, the content of SrO is preferably 0 to 6% or 0 to 5%, particularly preferably 0 to 4.5%.
ＢａＯは、耐薬品性、耐失透性を高める成分であるが、その含有量が高過ぎると、密度が上昇し易くなる。また、ＢａＯは、ＲＯの中では、溶融性を高める効果が乏しい。ガラス組成中にＳｉＯ2、Ａｌ2Ｏ3、Ｂ2Ｏ3及びＲＯを含むガラスは、一般的に溶融し難いため、高品質のガラス板を安価、且つ大量に供給する観点から、溶融性を高めて、泡、異物等による不良率を軽減することが非常に重要になる。よって、ＢａＯの含有量は、好ましくは０～７％、０～６％または０．１～５％、特に好ましくは０．５～４％である。なお、ガラス組成中にＳｉＯ2、Ａｌ2Ｏ3、Ｂ2Ｏ3及びＲＯを含むガラスでは、ＳｉＯ2の含有量を低減すると、溶融性が効果的に向上するが、ＳｉＯ2の含有量を低減すると、耐酸性が低下し易くなると共に、密度、熱膨張係数が上昇し易くなる。
BaO is a component that enhances chemical resistance and devitrification resistance, but if its content is too high, the density tends to increase. Moreover, BaO has a poor effect of improving the meltability in RO. Glass containing SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , B 2 O 3 and RO in the glass composition is generally difficult to melt. Therefore, from the viewpoint of supplying a high-quality glass plate at a low cost and in large quantities, it is necessary to improve the meltability. It is very important to reduce the defect rate due to bubbles, foreign matters and the like. Therefore, the content of BaO is preferably 0 to 7%, 0 to 6% or 0.1 to 5%, particularly preferably 0.5 to 4%. In addition, in the glass containing SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , B 2 O 3 and RO in the glass composition, when the content of SiO 2 is reduced, the meltability is effectively improved, but the content of SiO 2 is reduced. If it reduces, acid resistance will fall easily and a density and a thermal expansion coefficient will rise easily.
ＭｇＯ、ＳｒＯ、ＢａＯは、ＣａＯに比べて、耐クラック性を高める性質がある。従って、ＭｇＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯの含有量（ＭｇＯ、ＳｒＯ及びＢａＯの合量）は、好ましくは２％以上または３％以上、特に好ましくは３％超である。しかし、ＭｇＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯの含有量が高過ぎると、密度、熱膨張係数が上昇し易くなる。よって、ＭｇＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯの含有量は、好ましくは９％以下または８％以下である。
MgO, SrO, and BaO have the property of improving crack resistance compared to CaO. Therefore, the content of MgO + SrO + BaO (total amount of MgO, SrO and BaO) is preferably 2% or more or 3% or more, particularly preferably more than 3%. However, if the content of MgO + SrO + BaO is too high, the density and the thermal expansion coefficient tend to increase. Therefore, the content of MgO + SrO + BaO is preferably 9% or less or 8% or less.
ＲＯの内、２種類以上を混合して導入すると、液相線温度が大幅に低下し、ガラス中に結晶異物が生じ難くなり、溶融性、成形性が改善する。しかし、ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯの含有量が高過ぎると、密度が上昇して、ガラス板の軽量化を図り難くなる。よって、ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯの含有量は、好ましくは１５％未満または１４％未満、特に好ましくは１３％未満である。
When two or more types of RO are mixed and introduced, the liquidus temperature is drastically lowered, and it is difficult for crystal foreign matter to be generated in the glass, thereby improving the meltability and formability. However, if the content of MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO is too high, the density increases, making it difficult to reduce the weight of the glass plate. Therefore, the content of MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO is preferably less than 15% or less than 14%, particularly preferably less than 13%.
モル比（ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯ）／Ａｌ2Ｏ3を所定範囲に調整すると、液相線温度付近で、２種類以上の結晶が析出し易くなる。モル比（ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯ）／Ａｌ2Ｏ3が小さくなると、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3系結晶が析出し易くなる。一方、モル比（ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯ）／Ａｌ2Ｏ3が大きくなると、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3－ＲＯ系結晶、ＳｉＯ2系結晶が析出し易くなる。モル比（ＭｇＯ＋ＣａＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯ）／Ａｌ2Ｏ3の好ましい上限値は１．３、１．２５、１．２、１．１５または１．１０であって、特に１．０８であり、好ましい下限値は０．８、０．８５、０．８８、０．９１、０．９３、０．９５または０．９６であって、特に０．９７である。
When the molar ratio (MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO) / Al 2 O 3 is adjusted to a predetermined range, two or more types of crystals are likely to precipitate near the liquidus temperature. When the molar ratio (MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO) / Al 2 O 3 becomes smaller, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 -based crystals tend to precipitate. On the other hand, when the molar ratio (MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO) / Al 2 O 3 increases, SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 —RO based crystals and SiO 2 based crystals tend to precipitate. The preferred upper limit of the molar ratio (MgO + CaO + SrO + BaO) / Al 2 O 3 is 1.3, 1.25, 1.2, 1.15 or 1.10, particularly 1.08, and the preferred lower limit is 0. .8, 0.85, 0.88, 0.91, 0.93, 0.95 or 0.96, especially 0.97.
ＲＯの混合比を最適化するために、質量比ＣａＯ／（ＭｇＯ＋ＳｒＯ＋ＢａＯ）は、好ましくは０．７以上、０．８以上または０．９以上、特に好ましくは１以上であり、質量比ＣａＯ／ＭｇＯは、好ましくは２以上、３以上または４以上、特に好ましくは５以上である。
In order to optimize the mixing ratio of RO, the mass ratio CaO / (MgO + SrO + BaO) is preferably 0.7 or more, 0.8 or more or 0.9 or more, particularly preferably 1 or more, and the mass ratio CaO / MgO Is preferably 2 or more, 3 or more, or 4 or more, particularly preferably 5 or more.
ＺｎＯは、溶融性、耐ＢＨＦ性を改善する成分であるが、その含有量が高過ぎると、ガラスが失透し易くなったり、歪点が低下したりして、耐熱性を確保し難くなる。よって、ＺｎＯの含有量は、好ましくは０～５％、特に好ましくは０～１％である。
ZnO is a component that improves meltability and BHF resistance. However, if its content is too high, the glass tends to devitrify or the strain point decreases, making it difficult to ensure heat resistance. . Therefore, the content of ZnO is preferably 0 to 5%, particularly preferably 0 to 1%.
ＺｒＯ2は、化学的耐久性を高める成分であるが、その導入量が多くなると、ＺｒＳｉＯ4の失透ブツが発生し易くなる。ＺｒＯ2の好ましい下限含有量は１％、０．５％、０．３％または０．２％であって、特に０．１％であり、化学的耐久性の観点から０．００５％以上導入することが好ましい。最も好ましい含有範囲は０．００５～０．１％である。なお、ＺｒＯ2は、原料から導入してもよいし、耐火物からの溶出により導入してもよい。
ZrO 2 is a component that enhances chemical durability. However, when the amount of ZrO 2 is increased, devitrification of ZrSiO 4 tends to occur. The preferred lower limit of ZrO 2 content is 1%, 0.5%, 0.3% or 0.2%, especially 0.1%, and 0.005% or more is introduced from the viewpoint of chemical durability. It is preferable to do. The most preferable content range is 0.005 to 0.1%. ZrO 2 may be introduced from a raw material or may be introduced by elution from a refractory.
ＴｉＯ2は、高温粘性を下げて溶融性を高め、また化学的耐久性を高める効果があるが、導入量が過剰になると、紫外線透過率が低下し易くなる。ＴｉＯ2の含有量は、好ましくは３％以下、１％以下、０．５％以下、０．１％以下または０．０５％以下、特に好ましくは０．０３％以下である。なお、ＴｉＯ2を極少量導入（例えば０．００１％以上）すると、紫外線による着色を抑制する効果が得られる。
TiO 2 has the effect of lowering the high-temperature viscosity to increase the meltability and the chemical durability, but when the amount introduced is excessive, the ultraviolet transmittance tends to decrease. The content of TiO 2 is preferably 3% or less, 1% or less, 0.5% or less, 0.1% or less or 0.05% or less, particularly preferably 0.03% or less. If a very small amount of TiO 2 is introduced (for example, 0.001% or more), an effect of suppressing coloring by ultraviolet rays can be obtained.
Ｐ2Ｏ5は、歪点を高める成分であると共に、ＳｉＯ2－Ａｌ2Ｏ3－ＲＯ系結晶、特にアノーサイトの析出を抑制して、２種類以上の結晶を析出させるために、有効な成分である。但し、Ｐ2Ｏ5を多量に含有させると、ガラスが分相し易くなる。Ｐ2Ｏ5の含有量は、好ましくは０～５％、０～３％、０～２％または０～１％、特に好ましくは０～０．５％である。
P 2 O 5 is a component that increases the strain point and is effective for precipitating two or more types of crystals by suppressing the precipitation of SiO 2 —Al 2 O 3 —RO-based crystals, particularly anorthite. It is an ingredient. However, when P 2 O 5 is contained in a large amount, the glass is likely to undergo phase separation. The content of P 2 O 5 is preferably 0 to 5%, 0 to 3%, 0 to 2% or 0 to 1%, particularly preferably 0 to 0.5%.

As a clarifying agent, metal powder such as As 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 3 , SnO 2 , SO 3 , Fe 2 O 3 , CeO 2 , F 2 , Cl 2 , C, Al, Si, or the like can be used. . The total content is preferably 3% or less.
Ａｓ2Ｏ3、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3は、環境負荷化学物質であるため、できるだけ使用しないことが望ましい。Ａｓ2Ｏ3、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3の含有量は、それぞれ０．３％未満、０．１％未満、０．０９％未満、０．０５％未満、０．０３％未満、０．０１％未満または０．００５％未満が好ましく、特に０．００３％未満が好ましい。
As 2 O 3 and Sb 2 O 3 are environmentally hazardous chemicals, so it is desirable not to use them as much as possible. The contents of As 2 O 3 and Sb 2 O 3 are less than 0.3%, less than 0.1%, less than 0.09%, less than 0.05%, less than 0.03%, and less than 0.01%, respectively. Alternatively, it is preferably less than 0.005%, particularly preferably less than 0.003%.

SnO 2 functions as a fining agent for reducing bubbles in the glass and has an effect of maintaining a relatively high ultraviolet transmittance when coexisting with Fe 2 O 3 or FeO. On the other hand, if the SnO 2 content is too high, devitrification of SnO 2 tends to occur in the glass. The preferable upper limit content of SnO 2 is 0.5% or 0.4%, particularly 0.3%, and the preferable lower limit content is 0.01% or 0.05%. 1%.

鉄は、不純物として、原料から混入する成分であるが、鉄の含有量が高過ぎると、紫外線透過率が低下する恐れがある。紫外線透過率が低下すると、ＴＦＴを作製するフォトリソグラフィー工程や紫外線による液晶の配向工程で不具合が発生するおそれがある。よって、鉄の好ましい上限含有量は、Ｆｅ2Ｏ3に換算して、０．００１％であり、好ましい下限含有量は、Ｆｅ2Ｏ3に換算して、０．０５％、０．０４％または０．０３％であって、特に０．０２％である。最も好ましい含有範囲は０．００１％～０．０２％である。
Iron is a component mixed from the raw material as an impurity, but if the iron content is too high, the ultraviolet transmittance may be lowered. When the ultraviolet transmittance is lowered, there is a possibility that a defect may occur in a photolithography process for manufacturing a TFT or a liquid crystal alignment process using ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the preferable upper limit content of iron is 0.001% in terms of Fe 2 O 3 , and the preferable lower limit content is 0.05% and 0.04% in terms of Fe 2 O 3. Or 0.03%, especially 0.02%. The most preferable content range is 0.001% to 0.02%.
Ｃｒ2Ｏ3は、不純物として、原料から混入する成分であるが、Ｃｒ2Ｏ3の含有量が高過ぎると、ガラス板端面から光を入射し、散乱光によりガラス板内部の異物検査を行う場合に、光の透過が生じ難くなり、異物検査に不具合が生じるおそれがある。特に、基板サイズが７３０ｍｍ×９２０ｍｍ以上の場合に、この不具合が発生し易くなる。また、ガラス板の板厚が小さい（例えば０．５ｍｍ以下、０．４ｍｍ以下または０．３ｍｍ以下）と、ガラス板端面から入射する光が少なくなるため、Ｃｒ2Ｏ3の含有量を規制する意義が大きくなる。Ｃｒ2Ｏ3の好ましい上限含有量は０．００１％、０．０００８％、０．０００６％または０．０００５％であって、特に０．０００３％であり、好ましい下限含有量は０．００００１％である。最も好ましい含有範囲は０．００００１～０．０００３％である。
Cr 2 O 3 is a component mixed from the raw material as an impurity, but if the content of Cr 2 O 3 is too high, light enters from the end face of the glass plate, and the foreign matter inside the glass plate is inspected by scattered light. In such a case, it is difficult to transmit light, and there is a possibility that a defect may occur in the foreign substance inspection. In particular, this problem is likely to occur when the substrate size is 730 mm × 920 mm or more. Further, the thickness of the glass plate is small (for example 0.5mm or less, 0.4 mm or less, or 0.3mm or less), since the light incident from the glass plate end face is reduced, to restrict the content of Cr 2 O 3 Significance increases. The preferable upper limit content of Cr 2 O 3 is 0.001%, 0.0008%, 0.0006% or 0.0005%, particularly 0.0003%, and the preferable lower limit content is 0.00001%. It is. The most preferable content range is 0.00001 to 0.0003%.
ＳｎＯ2を０．０１～０．５％含む場合、Ｒｈ2Ｏ3の含有量が高過ぎると、ガラスが着色し易くなる。なお、Ｒｈ2Ｏ3は、白金の製造容器から混入する可能性がある。Ｒｈ2Ｏ3の含有量は、好ましくは０～０．０００５％、より好ましくは０．００００１～０．０００１％である。
When SnO 2 is contained in an amount of 0.01 to 0.5%, if the content of Rh 2 O 3 is too high, the glass tends to be colored. Note that Rh 2 O 3 may be mixed from a platinum production container. The content of Rh 2 O 3 is preferably 0 to 0.0005%, more preferably 0.00001 to 0.0001%.
ＳＯ3は、不純物として、原料から混入する成分であるが、ＳＯ3の含有量が高過ぎると、溶融や成形中に、リボイルと呼ばれる泡を発生させて、ガラス中に欠陥を生じさせるおそれがある。ＳＯ3の好ましい上限含有量は０．００５％、０．００３％または０．００２％であって、特に０．００１％であり、好ましい下限含有量は０．０００１％である。最も好ましい含有範囲は０．０００１％～０．００１％である。
SO 3 is a component mixed from the raw material as an impurity. However, if the content of SO 3 is too high, bubbles called reboil may be generated during melting and molding, which may cause defects in the glass. is there. The preferable upper limit content of SO 3 is 0.005%, 0.003% or 0.002%, particularly 0.001%, and the preferable lower limit content is 0.0001%. The most preferable content range is 0.0001% to 0.001%.
アルカリ成分、特にＬｉ2Ｏ、Ｎａ2Ｏは、ガラス板上に形成される各種の膜や半導体素子の特性を劣化させるため、その含有量を０．５％まで低減することが好ましく、実質的に含有しないことが望ましい。

In addition to the above components, other components may be introduced. The amount introduced is preferably 5% or less or 3% or less, particularly preferably 1% or less.
近年、ＯＬＥＤディスプレイ、液晶ディスプレイ等のモバイル用途のフラットパネルディスプレイでは、軽量化の要求が高まっており、ガラス板にも軽量化が求められている。この要求を満たすためには、低密度化によるガラス板の軽量化が望ましい。密度は、好ましくは２．５２ｇ／ｃｍ3以下、２．５１ｇ／ｃｍ3以下、２．５０ｇ／ｃｍ3以下または２．４９ｇ／ｃｍ3以下、特に好ましくは２．４８／ｃｍ3以下である。一方、密度が低過ぎると、溶融温度の上昇、液相線粘度の低下が生じ易くなり、ガラス板の生産性が低下し易くなる。また歪点も低下し易くなる。よって、密度は、好ましくは２．４３ｇ／ｃｍ3以上または２．４４ｇ／ｃｍ3以上、特に好ましくは２．４５ｇ／ｃｍ3以上である。
In recent years, flat panel displays for mobile applications such as OLED displays and liquid crystal displays have been increasingly required to be lightweight, and glass plates are also required to be lightweight. In order to satisfy this requirement, it is desirable to reduce the weight of the glass plate by reducing the density. The density is preferably 2.52 g / cm 3 or less, 2.51 g / cm 3 or less, 2.50 g / cm 3 or less or 2.49 g / cm 3 or less, particularly preferably 2.48 / cm 3 or less. On the other hand, if the density is too low, the melting temperature and the liquidus viscosity are likely to be lowered, and the productivity of the glass plate is likely to be lowered. In addition, the strain point is likely to decrease. Therefore, the density is preferably 2.43 g / cm 3 or more, or 2.44 g / cm 3 or more, particularly preferably 2.45 g / cm 3 or more.
本発明のガラスにおいて、熱膨張係数は、好ましくは３０～４０×１０-7／℃、３２～３９×１０-7／℃、または３３～３８×１０-7／℃、特に好ましくは３４～３７×１０-7／℃である。このようにすれば、ガラス板上に成膜される部材（例えば、ａ－Ｓｉ、ｐ－Ｓｉ）の熱膨張係数に整合し易くなる。ここで、「熱膨張係数」は、３０～３８０℃の温度範囲で測定した平均熱膨張係数を指し、例えばディラトメーターで測定可能である。
In the glass of the present invention, the thermal expansion coefficient is preferably 30 to 40 × 10 −7 / ° C., 32 to 39 × 10 −7 / ° C., or 33 to 38 × 10 −7 / ° C., particularly preferably 34 to 37. × 10 -7 / ° C. In this way, it becomes easy to match the thermal expansion coefficient of a member (for example, a-Si, p-Si) formed on the glass plate. Here, “thermal expansion coefficient” refers to an average thermal expansion coefficient measured in a temperature range of 30 to 380 ° C., and can be measured, for example, with a dilatometer.
ＯＬＥＤディスプレイ又は液晶ディスプレイ等では、大面積のガラス板（例えば、７３０×９２０ｍｍ以上、１１００×１２５０ｍｍ以上、または１５００×１５００ｍｍ以上）が使用されると共に、薄肉のガラス板（例えば、板厚が０．５ｍｍ以下、０．４ｍｍ以下、または０．３ｍｍ以下）が使用される傾向にある。ガラス板が大面積化、薄肉化すると、自重による撓みが大きな問題になる。ガラス板の撓みを低減するためには、ガラス板の比ヤング率を高める必要がある。比ヤング率は、好ましくは３０ＧＰａ／ｇ・ｃｍ-3以上、３０．５ＧＰａ／ｇ・ｃｍ-3以上、または３１ＧＰａ／ｇ・ｃｍ-3以上、特に好ましくは３１．５ＧＰａ／ｇ・ｃｍ-3以上である。また、ガラス板が大面積化、薄肉化すると、定盤上での熱処理工程、或いは各種の金属膜、酸化物膜、半導体膜、有機膜等の成膜工程後に、ガラス板の反りが問題になる。ガラス板の反りを低減するためには、ガラス板のヤング率を高めることが有効である。ヤング率は、好ましくは７５ＧＰａ以上、特に好ましくは７６ＧＰａ以上である。
In an OLED display, a liquid crystal display, or the like, a large-area glass plate (for example, 730 × 920 mm or more, 1100 × 1250 mm or more, or 1500 × 1500 mm or more) is used, and a thin glass plate (for example, a plate thickness of 0.1 mm or more). 5 mm or less, 0.4 mm or less, or 0.3 mm or less). When the glass plate becomes large and thin, bending due to its own weight becomes a big problem. In order to reduce the bending of the glass plate, it is necessary to increase the specific Young's modulus of the glass plate. Specific modulus is preferably 30GPa / g · cm -3 or more, 30.5GPa / g · cm -3 or more, or 31GPa / g · cm -3 or more, and particularly preferably 31.5GPa / g · cm -3 or more It is. Also, when the glass plate becomes large and thin, warping of the glass plate becomes a problem after a heat treatment process on a surface plate or a film formation process of various metal films, oxide films, semiconductor films, organic films, etc. Become. In order to reduce the warpage of the glass plate, it is effective to increase the Young's modulus of the glass plate. The Young's modulus is preferably 75 GPa or more, particularly preferably 76 GPa or more.
現在、超高精細のモバイルディスプレイに用いられるＬＴＰＳでは、その工程温度が約４００～６００℃である。この工程温度での熱収縮を抑制するために、歪点は、好ましくは６８０℃以上または６９０℃以上、特に好ましくは７００℃以上である。
At present, the process temperature of LTPS used in ultra-high-definition mobile displays is about 400-600 ° C. In order to suppress thermal shrinkage at this process temperature, the strain point is preferably 680 ° C. or higher or 690 ° C. or higher, particularly preferably 700 ° C. or higher.
最近では、ＯＬＥＤディスプレイが、モバイルやＴＶ等の用途でも使用される。この用途の駆動ＴＦＴ素子として、上記のＬＴＰＳ以外に、酸化物ＴＦＴが着目されている。従来まで、酸化物ＴＦＴは、ａ－Ｓｉと同等の３００～４００℃の温度プロセスで作製されていたが、従来よりも高い熱処理温度でアニールを行うと、より安定した素子特性が得られることが分かってきた。その熱処理温度は、４００～６００℃程度であり、この用途でも低熱収縮のガラス板が要求されるようになっている。
Recently, OLED displays are also used for mobile and TV applications. In addition to the LTPS described above, an oxide TFT has attracted attention as a driving TFT element for this application. Conventionally, oxide TFTs have been fabricated by a temperature process of 300 to 400 ° C. equivalent to a-Si. However, if annealing is performed at a higher heat treatment temperature than before, more stable device characteristics can be obtained. I understand. The heat treatment temperature is about 400 to 600 ° C., and a glass plate with low heat shrinkage is required even in this application.
本発明のガラスにおいて、室温（２５℃）から５℃／分の速度で５００℃まで昇温し、５００℃で１時間保持した後、５℃／分の速度で室温まで降温したとき、熱収縮値は、好ましくは３０ｐｐｍ以下、２５ｐｐｍ以下、２３ｐｐｍ以下、２２ｐｐｍ以下、２１ｐｐｍ以下、２０ｐｐｍ以下、１９ｐｐｍ以下、１８ｐｐｍ以下、１７ｐｐｍ以下または１６ｐｐｍ以下、特に好ましくは１５ｐｐｍ以下である。このようにすれば、ＬＴＰＳの製造工程で熱処理を受けても、画素ピッチズレ等の不具合が生じ難くなる。なお、熱収縮値が小さ過ぎると、ガラスの生産性が低下し易くなる。よって、熱収縮値は、好ましくは５ｐｐｍ以上、特に好ましくは８ｐｐｍ以上である。
When the glass of the present invention was heated from room temperature (25 ° C.) to 500 ° C. at a rate of 5 ° C./minute, held at 500 ° C. for 1 hour, and then cooled to room temperature at a rate of 5 ° C./minute, The value is preferably 30 ppm or less, 25 ppm or less, 23 ppm or less, 22 ppm or less, 21 ppm or less, 20 ppm or less, 19 ppm or less, 18 ppm or less, 17 ppm or less, or 16 ppm or less, particularly preferably 15 ppm or less. In this way, even if heat treatment is performed in the LTPS manufacturing process, problems such as pixel pitch deviation are less likely to occur. If the heat shrinkage value is too small, the productivity of the glass tends to decrease. Therefore, the heat shrinkage value is preferably 5 ppm or more, particularly preferably 8 ppm or more.
熱収縮値は、歪点を高める以外にも、成形時の冷却速度を低下させることでも低減することができる。特に、ガラスの徐冷点をＴａ（℃）とし、Ｔａよりも１００℃高い温度からＴａよりも１００℃低い温度までの間の温度範囲における成形時の平均冷却速度をＲ（℃／分）としたときに、成形時の冷却は、ｌｏｇＲ≦０．０００１８３６１Ｔａ2－０．２３４１４Ｔａ＋７５．２９の関係を満たすことが好ましく、ｌｏｇＲ≦０．０００１１８２１Ｔａ2－０．１４８４７Ｔａ＋４７．０３の関係を満たすことがより好ましく、ｌｏｇＲ≦０．００００５４３２６Ｔａ2－０．０６４９８５Ｔａ＋１９．５６の関係を満たすことが更に好ましい。上記関係式が満たされない場合、熱収縮値が過大になり易い。
In addition to increasing the strain point, the heat shrinkage value can also be reduced by reducing the cooling rate during molding. In particular, let the annealing point of glass be Ta (° C.), and let R (° C./min) be the average cooling rate during molding in the temperature range from a temperature 100 ° C. higher than Ta to a temperature 100 ° C. lower than Ta. upon cooling during molding, it is preferable to satisfy the relationship of logR ≦ 0.00018361Ta 2 -0.23414Ta + 75.29, more preferably satisfies the relationship logR ≦ 0.00011821Ta 2 -0.14847Ta + 47.03 LogR ≦ 0.000054326Ta 2 −0.064985Ta + 19.56 is more preferably satisfied. When the above relational expression is not satisfied, the heat shrinkage value tends to be excessive.
オーバーフローダウンドロー法では、楔形の耐火物（或いは白金族金属で被覆された耐火物）の表面を溶融ガラスが流下し、楔の下端で合流して、板状に成形される。スロットダウンドロー法では、例えば、スリット状の開口部を持つ白金族金属製のパイプからリボン状の溶融ガラスを流下、冷却して、板状に成形される。成形装置に接触している溶融ガラスの温度が高過ぎると、成形装置の老朽化を招き、ガラス板の生産性が低下し易くなる。よって、高温粘度１０5.0ｄＰａ・ｓにおける温度は、好ましくは１３００℃以下、１２８０℃以下、１２７０℃以下、１２６０℃以下、１２５０℃以下または１２４０℃以下、特に好ましくは１２３０℃以下である。ここで、「１０5.0ｄＰａ・ｓにおける温度」は、例えば白金球引き上げ法で測定可能である。なお、高温粘度１０5.0ｄＰａ・ｓにおける温度は、成形時の溶融ガラスの温度に相当している。
In the overflow down-draw method, molten glass flows down the surface of a wedge-shaped refractory (or a refractory coated with a platinum group metal), joins at the lower end of the wedge, and is formed into a plate shape. In the slot down draw method, for example, a ribbon-shaped molten glass is flowed down from a platinum group metal pipe having a slit-shaped opening and cooled to be formed into a plate shape. If the temperature of the molten glass in contact with the forming apparatus is too high, the forming apparatus will be deteriorated, and the productivity of the glass plate will be easily lowered. Therefore, the temperature at a high temperature viscosity of 10 5.0 dPa · s is preferably 1300 ° C. or lower, 1280 ° C. or lower, 1270 ° C. or lower, 1260 ° C. or lower, 1250 ° C. or lower, or 1240 ° C. or lower, particularly preferably 1230 ° C. or lower. Here, the “temperature at 10 5.0 dPa · s” can be measured by, for example, a platinum ball pulling method. The temperature at a high temperature viscosity of 10 5.0 dPa · s corresponds to the temperature of the molten glass at the time of molding.
ガラス組成中にＳｉＯ2、Ａｌ2Ｏ3、Ｂ2Ｏ3及びＲＯを含むガラスは、一般的に、溶融し難い。このため、溶融性の向上が課題になる。溶融性を高めると、泡、異物等による不良率が軽減されるため、高品質のガラス板を大量、且つ安価に供給することができる。一方、高温域でのガラスの粘度が高過ぎると、溶融工程で脱泡が促進され難くなる。よって、高温粘度１０2.5ｄＰａ・ｓにおける温度は、好ましくは１６５０℃以下、１６４０℃以下、１６３０℃以下または１６２０℃以下、特に好ましくは１６１０℃以下である。ここで、「１０2.5ｄＰａ・ｓにおける温度」は、例えば白金球引き上げ法で測定可能である。なお、高温粘度１０2.5ｄＰａ・ｓにおける温度は、溶融温度に相当しており、この温度が低い程、溶融性に優れている。
Glass containing SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , B 2 O 3 and RO in the glass composition is generally difficult to melt. For this reason, improvement of meltability becomes a problem. When the meltability is increased, the defect rate due to bubbles, foreign matters, and the like is reduced, so that a high-quality glass plate can be supplied in a large amount at a low cost. On the other hand, when the viscosity of the glass in a high temperature range is too high, defoaming is hardly promoted in the melting step. Therefore, the temperature at a high temperature viscosity of 10 2.5 dPa · s is preferably 1650 ° C. or lower, 1640 ° C. or lower, 1630 ° C. or lower, or 1620 ° C. or lower, particularly preferably 1610 ° C. or lower. Here, the “temperature at 10 2.5 dPa · s” can be measured by, for example, a platinum ball pulling method. The temperature at a high temperature viscosity of 10 2.5 dPa · s corresponds to the melting temperature, and the lower this temperature, the better the meltability.
ダウンドロー法等で成形する場合、耐失透性が重要になる。ガラス組成中にＳｉＯ2、Ａｌ2Ｏ3、Ｂ2Ｏ3及びＲＯを含むガラスの成形温度を考慮すると、液相線温度は、好ましくは１２５０℃未満、１２３０℃以下、１２２０℃以下、１２１０℃以下または１２００℃以下、特に好ましくは１１９０℃以下である。また、液相線粘度は、好ましくは１０5.0ｄＰａ・s以上、１０5.2ｄＰａ・s以上、１０5.3ｄＰａ・s以上、１０5.4ｄＰａ・s以上または１０5.5ｄＰａ・s以上、特に好ましくは１０5.6ｄＰａ・s以上である。ここで、「液相線粘度」は、液相線温度におけるガラスの粘度を指し、例えば白金球引き上げ法で測定可能である。
Devitrification resistance is important when molding by the downdraw method or the like. Considering the molding temperature of glass containing SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , B 2 O 3 and RO in the glass composition, the liquidus temperature is preferably less than 1250 ° C., 1230 ° C. or less, 1220 ° C. or less, 1210 ° C. Or 1200 ° C. or less, particularly preferably 1190 ° C. or less. The liquidus viscosity is preferably 10 5.0 dPa · s or more, 10 5.2 dPa · s or more, 10 5.3 dPa · s or more, 10 5.4 dPa · s or more, or 10 5.5 dPa · s or more, and particularly preferably 10 5.6 dPa · s or more. dPa · s or more. Here, “liquidus viscosity” refers to the viscosity of glass at the liquidus temperature, and can be measured by, for example, a platinum ball pulling method.
高精細のディスプレイに用いられるガラス板には、透明導電膜、絶縁膜、半導体膜、金属膜等が成膜される。更に、フォトリソグラフィーエッチング工程によって種々の回路、パターンが形成される。これらの成膜工程、フォトリソグラフィーエッチング工程において、ガラス板は、種々の薬液処理を受ける。例えば、ＴＦＴ型アクティブマトリックス液晶ディスプレイでは、ガラス板上に絶縁膜や透明導電膜を成膜し、更にアモルファスシリコンや多結晶シリコンのＴＦＴ（薄膜トランジスタ）がフォトリソグラフィーエッチング工程によりガラス板上に多数形成される。このような工程では、硫酸、塩酸、アルカリ溶液、フッ酸、ＢＨＦ等の種々の薬液処理を受ける。特に、ＢＨＦは、絶縁膜のエッチングに広く用いられるが、ＢＨＦは、ガラス板を侵食して、ガラス板の表面を白濁させ易く、またその反応生成物が、製造工程中のフィルターを詰まらせたり、ガラス板上に付着するおそれがある。上記事情から、ガラス板の耐薬品性を高めることが重要になる。
A transparent conductive film, an insulating film, a semiconductor film, a metal film, etc. are formed on a glass plate used for a high-definition display. Furthermore, various circuits and patterns are formed by a photolithography etching process. In these film forming process and photolithography etching process, the glass plate is subjected to various chemical treatments. For example, in a TFT type active matrix liquid crystal display, an insulating film or a transparent conductive film is formed on a glass plate, and a large number of amorphous silicon or polycrystalline silicon TFTs (thin film transistors) are formed on the glass plate by a photolithography etching process. The In such a process, various chemical treatments such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, alkaline solution, hydrofluoric acid, and BHF are performed. In particular, BHF is widely used for etching an insulating film. However, BHF erodes the glass plate and tends to cloud the surface of the glass plate, and the reaction product clogs the filter during the manufacturing process. There is a risk of adhering to the glass plate. From the above situation, it is important to increase the chemical resistance of the glass plate.
本発明のガラスは、オーバーフローダウンドロー法で成形されてなることが好ましい。オーバーフローダウンドロー法とは、楔形の耐火物の両側から溶融ガラスを溢れさせて、溢れた溶融ガラスを楔形の下端で合流させながら、下方に延伸成形してガラス板を成形する方法である。オーバーフローダウンドロー法では、ガラス板の表面となるべき面は耐火物に接触せず、自由表面の状態で成形される。このため、未研磨で表面品位が良好なガラス板を安価に製造することができ、大面積化や薄肉化も容易である。なお、オーバーフローダウンドロー法で用いる耐火物の材質は、所望の寸法や表面精度を実現できるものであれば、特に限定されない。また、下方への延伸成形を行う際に、力を印加する方法も特に限定されない。例えば、十分に大きい幅を有する耐熱性ロールをガラスに接触させた状態で回転させて延伸する方法を採用してもよいし、複数の対になった耐熱性ロールをガラスの端面近傍のみに接触させて延伸する方法を採用してもよい。
The glass of the present invention is preferably formed by an overflow down draw method. The overflow down draw method is a method in which molten glass is overflowed from both sides of a wedge-shaped refractory, and the overflowed molten glass is merged at the lower end of the wedge shape, and is stretched downward to form a glass plate. In the overflow down draw method, the surface to be the surface of the glass plate is not in contact with the refractory, and is formed in a free surface state. For this reason, it is possible to produce an unpolished glass plate with good surface quality at low cost, and it is easy to increase the area and thickness. The material of the refractory used in the overflow downdraw method is not particularly limited as long as it can realize desired dimensions and surface accuracy. In addition, the method of applying a force when performing downward stretch molding is not particularly limited. For example, a method may be adopted in which a heat-resistant roll having a sufficiently large width is rotated and stretched in contact with the glass, or a plurality of pairs of heat-resistant rolls are contacted only near the end face of the glass. It is also possible to adopt a method of stretching by stretching.
オーバーフローダウンドロー法以外にも、例えば、ダウンドロー法（スロットダウン法、リドロー法等）、フロート法等でガラス板を成形することも可能である。
In addition to the overflow downdraw method, a glass plate can be formed by, for example, a downdraw method (slot down method, redraw method, etc.), a float method, or the like.
本発明のガラスにおいて、厚み（板厚）は、特に限定されないが、好ましくは０．５ｍｍ以下、０．４ｍｍ以下または０．３５ｍｍ以下、特に好ましくは０．３ｍｍ以下である。板厚が小さい程、デバイスを軽量化し易くなる。一方、板厚が小さい程、ガラス板が撓み易くなるが、本発明のガラスは、ヤング率や比ヤング率が高いため、撓みに起因する不具合が生じ難い。なお、板厚は、ガラス製造時の流量や板引き速度等で調整可能である。
In the glass of the present invention, the thickness (plate thickness) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.5 mm or less, 0.4 mm or less, or 0.35 mm or less, particularly preferably 0.3 mm or less. The smaller the plate thickness, the easier it is to reduce the weight of the device. On the other hand, the smaller the plate thickness, the easier the glass plate bends. However, since the glass of the present invention has a high Young's modulus and specific Young's modulus, it is difficult for defects caused by bending to occur. In addition, plate | board thickness can be adjusted with the flow rate at the time of glass manufacture, a board drawing speed, etc.
本発明のガラスにおいて、β－ＯＨ値を低下させると、歪点を高めることができる。β－ＯＨ値は、好ましくは０．５／ｍｍ以下、０．４５／ｍｍ以下または０．４／ｍｍ以下、特に好ましくは０．３５／ｍｍ以下である。β－ＯＨ値が大き過ぎると、歪点が低下し易くなる。なお、β－ＯＨ値が小さ過ぎると、溶融性が低下し易くなる。よって、β－ＯＨ値は、好ましくは０．０１／ｍｍ以上、特に好ましくは０．０５／ｍｍ以上である。
In the glass of the present invention, the strain point can be increased by lowering the β-OH value. The β-OH value is preferably 0.5 / mm or less, 0.45 / mm or less or 0.4 / mm or less, particularly preferably 0.35 / mm or less. If the β-OH value is too large, the strain point tends to decrease. If the β-OH value is too small, the meltability tends to be lowered. Therefore, the β-OH value is preferably 0.01 / mm or more, particularly preferably 0.05 / mm or more.
β－ＯＨ値を低下させる方法として、以下の方法が挙げられる。（１）含水量の低い原料を選択する。（２）ガラス中にβ－ＯＨ値を低下させる成分（Ｃｌ、ＳＯ3等）を添加する。（３）炉内雰囲気中の水分量を低下させる。（４）溶融ガラス中でＮ2バブリングを行う。（５）小型溶融炉を採用する。（６）溶融ガラスの流量を多くする。（７）電気溶融法を採用する。
As a method for reducing the β-OH value, the following methods may be mentioned. (1) Select a raw material with a low water content. (2) A component (Cl, SO 3 or the like) that lowers the β-OH value is added to the glass. (3) Reduce the amount of moisture in the furnace atmosphere. (4) N 2 bubbling is performed in molten glass. (5) Adopt a small melting furnace. (6) Increase the flow rate of the molten glass. (7) An electric melting method is adopted.
ここで、「β－ＯＨ値」は、ＦＴ－ＩＲを用いてガラスの透過率を測定し、下記の式を用いて求めた値を指す。
β－ＯＨ値 ＝ （１／Ｘ）ｌｏｇ（Ｔ1／Ｔ2）

本発明のガラスは、ＯＬＥＤディスプレイの基板に用いることが好ましい。ＯＬＥＤは、一般に市販されつつあるが、大量生産によるコストダウンが強く望まれている。本発明のガラスは、生産性に優れており、且つ大面積化や薄肉化が容易であるため、このような要求を的確に満たすことができる。

Each sample was produced as follows.
